    And what position would he play? No matter what, he's coming off the bench if he signs with the Spurs. But if he's chasing a ring, he'll do it.

    Yeah thats what i was wondering. maybe less minutes for kevin martin and david lee, but i doubt he is willing to accept a 15min a game role even if it does give him a shot at a ring. Especially seeing as he is behind leonard who is way better defensively im not sure how he would fit in there.

    The fact that he said "after this trade Josh will want out" Josh Smith isn't on this team anymore. So either he got convoluted intel or he's spit-balling with the info Cod dropped

    Yeah seems a lil fishy to me that Sacto would include Collison in the deal when they have no legit PG behind him. Not unless there is a 3rd team like PHX involved and they send them bledsoe. Maybe that is why the deal is taking time. Oh well, I wouldn't mind Gay on the team, but I just hope we get another PG that has some real game.

    Yeah especially after letting Rondo go and committing to Collison as pg last month. But who knows? Not even Vlade.

    Won't happen if he really wants MIA. Too much for a rental.

    Yeah, how these people have jobs is beyond me with such lazy writing.

    Yeah that does kind of kill the credibility of the author....it should be obvious that the reason the Rockets moved on from Terrence Jones was because he was absolutely terrible at playing basketball. Like, everything involved with playing basketball.

    If this author doesn't realize this and is still going on about Terrence Jones' "considerable talents" in 2016.....maybe he should pick a different sport to write about.

    I'm so happy Terrence is gone. I hated when he faked injuries before trade deadlines. He had the weirdest non basketball related injuries. I can toast to this guy being gone.

    I like that he claims Jones isn't liked for off-court reasons, as if the players care he stomped that hobo.

    Either way would really like Rudy gay. The guy can score in many ways. Who knows under a good team he could do well
